Early Access Review
Well, most of the tasks are halfway broken. You get sent on a voyage in a borrowed ship and it runs out of fuel and breaks the main engine just as you enter port. You stop to help a stranded ship and it doesn't have spares on board to do anything about it (neither does your borrowed ship). You go to help unload a ship and it repeats the unload job seven days in a row, you can't just finish them but have to wait for some random period the next day to continue (a shipping company would have a fit if you took a week to unload a container ship).

It seems the developers are pushing out the full release right about now (Sept 2026) and are planning to abandon the game, but that's just forum drama for now?

This has a lot of potential, but there's a game-breaking bug where clean and dry cash keeps randomly getting wet and dirty.

Instead of fixing the buggy mess of the actual game, they made a DLC. They could have given this out for free as an apology for releasing the game in its current state.

The subs are moderately better effort than most of the ships with little blatantly obvious copy-pasting.

It's a buggy piece of crap and the developer has already admitted that they're abandoning it and making a sequel instead of trying to fix it. Don't buy this and probably don't buy the sequel if this is how they treat paying customers.

[Edit]
Well, i'm this far, might as well 100% this turd. Keep running into bugs, some of them merely annoying, some of them game breaking (your inventory doesn't seem to be able to decide what size it is and how big the item stacks can be). Worse yet, you start to notice how little effort has gone into the ship designs. Entire floors of the superstructure of some of the big ships are just copy pasted, but worse yet, they'll have like six identical (down to the litter on the floor) cabins each. One even had two of everything because someone hit ^V twice.

It is so incredibly clear that none of the developers ever actually played all the way through the game.

A great combination of modded minecraft and factorio, with graphics that don't suck. The 1.0 release was a great wrap-up of the "story".

Great game for the obsessive "must mine entire asteroids!" player and anyone interested in building spacecraft.

Fun enough little platformer.

I loved PC1, but PC2 is unplayable.

I've spent hours on end failing to even finish races because the penalty system makes it impossible to win anyway. Most of them for reasons outside my control or even when i've done nothing wrong that i can see. It regularly looks like i'm getting a damn speeding ticket on a race track... Often, the AI players pull weird manouvers, crashing into me or seeming to pull the handbrake in front of me, both costing ME a five second penalty. Trying to even get a clean warmup lap on races with those is an excercise in frustration. I eventually found out how to disable penalties, but i still don't enjoy the game.

This game gets the dubious honor of being the first in my 30 years of gaming that ever made me throw a controller in anger.

I requested a refund, but was denied. I'd played 13 hours, in which i'd finished (and won) a total of two races.

Surprisingly calming and meditative, in a way.
